Wasn't the reply I posted on the 14th clear enough? OK, I'll try again.

UP has hundreds of units stored at various places around the system, including 150 or so low-horsepower, 4-axle units. Many of those - especially if they are not equipped with alignment-control drawbars such as MP15s and GP15s - are being rounded up and moved to Grand Junction.
